Daniel Alfon (DanielAlfon.com) — Bridging Human Connection and LinkedIn Strategy
Daniel Alfon is a globally respected LinkedIn expert and the founder of DanielAlfon.com, where he helps business owners, consultants, and sales professionals use LinkedIn as a relationship-driven business engine. With nearly two decades of experience on the platform, Daniel focuses on authentic networking, strategic visibility, and human connection over automation and vanity metrics.
In this episode of Clicks & Bricks, Daniel joins host Ken Cox to unpack how LinkedIn works best when it’s treated as a tool for people, not a replacement for relationships. Drawing from real-world sales, networking, and consulting experience, Daniel explains how focusing on quality connections, thoughtful outreach, and intentional profile positioning can shorten sales cycles and build trust at scale
Key Takeaways from the Episode:
LinkedIn is a data source for networking, but real trust is built by taking conversations off the platform and engaging like a human.
Your personal profile matters more than your company page, especially for SMBs, consultants, and service providers.
Quality beats quantity: maintaining a small circle of key relationships delivers more value than mass outreach.
Authenticity wins—imperfection, personality, and uniqueness make professionals relatable and memorable.
You can generate real business on LinkedIn without posting constantly by using research, introductions, and meaningful conversations.
Memorable Quote:
“LinkedIn is just the tool — the essence is our ability to communicate as people.”
